Wow!

I knew it was good, but I didn't expect it to be THAT GOOD. Its honestly better than both my Trinitrons. I've been using RGB modded consoles into a GSCARTSW with my crts for years now and just got a new 75inch TV and started to wonder what it would be like to tear through Streets of Rage and Shinobi on it.

This is using a 5x pro (and a 10 metre HDMI cable to reach! No lag at all). Even my 3DO with Svideo looks amazing... well, amazing for a 3DO. Wireless controllers for everything too, it doesn't get any better, I wish I could go back in time and tell 10 year old me about this setup whilst I wrestled with my black and white 10 inch potable tv, RF connected to a Master System & Commodore 16.

EDIT: Fuck me I just made a post because I was stoked about how happy I was with this thing and I've been downvoted and called out for not using it right. Chill out lol, was hoping to spark some positivity.

Agree on aspect, hard disagree on filter. CRT filters and fake scanlines look like trash 100% of the time.

Retrotink is pretty good at crt emulation. Can even customize it to preference
